I so love this little SIX - 16 Kodak Camera and the great little Kodak film reel canister I just recently discovered! This is only the beginning of utilizing some great vintage props for further use! Happy Happy....so very Happy! And speaking of Happy.....Happy New Year everyone! Best wishes for a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year!

One customer of mine got the party started early! These cupcakes were a blast to make partially because the majority of them were "Intoxicated"! Guests were singing to the tunes of Tiramisu with Rum, Malibu Rum and some Frangelico Liquers in a few of these cupcakes! Thank you Karen for asking me to be a part of the festivities and allowing me to fit in the the sweet and perfect endings to your fine catering! I look forward to working with you again.....it was so much fun!

Euro Car OC put on another amazing Holiday Gala this year to benefit Childhelp! Ditzie Cakes had the honor once again to create a memorable display for the evening to tantalize the guests! I had one particular gentleman who mentioned that he felt like he was dreaming as he stood in front of a wonderland of chocolate fantasies and heavenly sweet delights! That certainly made me very pleased to hear him say this! It was a wonderland and most definitely a feast to behold as I created new desserts last night! There were the Hazelnut Mousse Shots which were surprisingly the first to go! Then I made my new Black Forest cupcake and my holiday favorite, Sugar Plum Fairy. It has no plums what so ever but a Grand Marnier cranberry cake and a Grand Marnier white chocolate butter cream frosting. Linzer cookies were also part of the menu.....loved them all and all of them were gone by the end of the evening! Cheers!

Meine Güte! Fröhliche und Leker! This version is so much better than the traditional German Black Forest Cake. I definitely made sure the chocolate base of the cake was full of chocolate goodness with hints of cherry and almonds to delight the senses. What better to have made this more sensational......it was the Kirschwasser cherry filling and a creamy whipped topping with just a hint of cocoa to finish it this cupcake off!

About Me

I am a freelance textile designer who has designed everything from Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville to baby bibs for Funkie Baby! Fabulous cupcakes, textiles, photography, graphics and fashion design seem to go quite well together! Now I have something to be passionate about.... These are a few of my favorite things to create in life for this fun loving artist who really loves to make life "sweeter"!

DITZIE BABY BLOOMERS!

This is a place where babies are cool to drool and wiggle their little ruffled bottoms! I will be launching a new line of baby apparel to make your adorable babies Fashionably Couture! By trade as a licensed textile artist, your baby will own a one of a kind fashion by me!

Ditzie Cakes will be carrying three designs of these precious bloomers in their on-line store. You may contact thebakers@ditziecakes.com anytime you wish to inquire or make a purchase. I will happily gift wrap them and send them on their way to you!

My Cupcake Pattern is Nearly Everywhere to be Seen!

I am amazed and delighted everytime I do a search for some kind of cupcake recipe and I find my little cupcake design nicely manufactured into a little girls dress or tote bag or heaven forbid..... an apron! These are what I found....
